SPECIAL POST
The very first thing that crosses my mind when Iran flips ITS giant middle finger to the rest of the world and announces that it will build as many nuclear facilities as it damned-well wants is that situation we were in when Jimmy Carter, Obama’s predecessor in winning the Nobel Peace Prize, was at the helm. If you remember correctly, the number one song-hit in those days was, “Bomb, bomb, bomb… bomb, bomb Iran.” And, here we are again.
The second thing that passes through my mind is the length of time it has taken Obama to make the decision regarding more Afghanistan troops; being well over 90 days, it shows the molasses-like speed of Obama’s thought processes and the charisma he asserts in his quest to be the de facto “messiah of the world.” I’d prefer to have a President with more decisive leadership skills as opposed to one who has charisma.
The realistic way to look at the situation from a purely military standpoint is that we urgently need to send 60,000 more troops and a whole bunch of military hardware into Afghanistan, just so they are strategically located in the likelihood that we have to deal with Iran in a more “politically incorrect” manner. There’s also the remote chance that the collective Iranian insane asylum might be persuaded to be more a little more neighborly without us having to stomp the shit out of them.
All of which brings us to the point: Within 10 short months of “change,” this country has progressed from being relatively secure in a post-9/11 world to being on the wrong end of nuclear-tipped missiles in the hands of Iran and North Korea, while being saddled with a President who seems hell-bent on getting his Government-run Health Care Plan passed. If Awkmandidhejig is already this rambunctious, what’s he going to be like to deal with during the New York City terrorist trials? The real question now facing us suddenly switches from, “How in the hell are we going to pay for this new Health Care Plan that is totally, totally out of touch with reality, when we have an economy that is on the verge of becoming the “Greatest Depression?” to, “How are we going to deal with Iran, North Korea, Afghanistan and the fact that our country is already internally permeated with radical terrorist factions? How will we survive?”
How will our unethical, corrupt, self-centered collection of clowns who occupy the halls of power in Congress and the White House handle this new ominous threat of a World War III? Will they, knowing that the world’s greatest financial crises have historically been solved by going to war, allow things to continue until the flames of war are lit once more? Is Obama, through his bows and apologies to the rest of the world not fanning those arrogant flames? Is he now going to tell us that it’s our fault?
Is the price we Americans must inevitably pay for allowing our morals, ethics and patriotism to crumble into a quagmire of self-centered evil that currently exists in our midst? What situation will this charismatic twit in the White House have us in after three more years?
That question really spurs you into wanting to go Christmas shopping, doesn’t it?
